"Have stayed many times before & always found it very good. Only minor negative was breakfast which was spoiled a bit by staff going round cleaning tables & resetting them around you when eating."
"Lovely place just we had a room where their was a dog next door get barking and didn’t get much sleep the staff and the hotel and room was lovely and food was amazing and thank you for our stay"
"The food is excellent. Breakfast menu is great and had 3 course meal in restaurant which was excellent. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Only criticism is the changing rooms floor could be cleaner and the windows in the pool area. But really is an excellent hotel and will likely be retuning next year."
